Anything new brewing at the Cascade Mountain Range?W

When Mount Kilauea first erupted I hoped it would be a flash in the pan eruption, then it sustained. Currently, there is a small volcanic island forming off Hawai’i. I believe it is vents 7and 8 of Mount Kilauea still sending out significant amounts of lava some through canals under cooled lava to the sea. The volcano’s cone and surrounding land mass are collapsing daily with seismic movement of greater than 5 on th Richter scale.

Today the USGS has picked up a swarm of earthquakes around Yakima, Washington in the range of 2.4 Richter. The first week of the eruption of Mount Kilauea everything in the Cascade Range was quite. The report on Friday stated all was normal. 

At time of the eruption on Hawaii the Fueho Mountain in Guatemala erupted. It was a deadly eruption and killed over 100 people with many missing. NASA ran a heat scan on June 24th of the mountain and surrounding land in Guatemala and some cooling has occurred where the pyrocladtic flows occurred, but, there is still significant heat. There doesn’t seem to be anymore activity, although the lingering heat is curious.

Only a few hours ago the oldest Yellowstone geyser as erupted in an enormous plumb of at least 100 feet or more into the air and nearly reaching the viewing stand full of people.

I think the swarm of earthquakes inWashington State and the unusual eruptions of guysers in Yellowstone, it is time to better understand the caldera and/or any relationship with the Cascades on the West Coast.

NASA had been developing a measure to stabilize Yellowstone. I think the time has come to do more than submit proposals and wait for finding. I don’t believe in coincidence.

Croatia has done it again.

The country of Croatia has many world class sport teams and some say it is genetics. More than scoccer it has champions in tennis, basketball, tennis, water polo and hand ball. The people of this tiny country have rather tall people that tend to be very athletic. That doesn’t mean they haven’t worked hard to achieve their status, quite the contrary. But, as a national team they are tough to beat. 

I congratulate Croatia for its hard work and persistent success. The World Cup is coming to the USA, it is time to get serious.

Trump is a disgrace to the USA.

Trump dresses up nice, but, you just can’t take him anywhere.

His demeanor is so outrageous no one pays attention to him anymore. Every time he is breaking protocol any real diplomatic message gets lost. He explained his statement about Boris Johnson was not meant to insult Theresa May, but, to encourage Mr. Johnson in spite of his resignation. That is all fine and good and most public figures make those bloopers, but, he ruined it for himself. Rather than making the occasional blooper he is assailed by the expectation of an insult. Trump has ruined his own public image.

I think the arrogance of walking ahead of the queen when viewing the troops was more than anyone should tolerate. That finished it for me. Here, the oldest living monarch of a long lived ally put out the red carpet for Trump as President of the United States and he had the almighty nerve to ruin the moment for everyone else including the Queen. I have no respect for the man. He is untrustworthy with the status of President of the United States of America. Any fool could carry on such insulting behavior. He is neither a scholar or a gentleman.
